DECEMBER
2008 --
Harley-Davidson is
recalling 3,285 MY 2009 FXD,
FXDF, FXDC, FXDL, and FXDB
motorcycles. The jiffy stand
spring anchor may have been
built with a defective weld
that may allow the jiffy
stand assembly to not
retract as intended. This
condition could lead to a
crash which could cause
injury or death to the
rider. Dealers will remove
the original jiffy stand
spring anchor and replace it
with a new spring anchor
free of charge. The recall
is expected to begin during
January 2009. Owners may
contact Harley-Davidson at
1-414-342-4680. 08V-659
NOVEMBER
2008 -- Harley-Davidson
is recalling 349 MY 2009
FXDB, FXDC, FXDF, and FXDL
motorcycles. These
motorcycles have a fuel tank
vent tube assembly, Part No.
27389-04A, which may have
been produced with a
questionable ultrasonic weld
on the anti-slosh valve. If
the valve separates and the
bike is tipped over, it may
leak fuel. Fuel leakage in
the presence of an ignition
source could result in a
fire. Dealers will inspect
the fuel vent tube assembly
and, if necessary, replace
it. The recall is expected
to begin during December
2008. Owners may contact
Harley-Davidson at
1-414-343-4056. 08V-625 |
